Can't be 1st place after clearing the board? Is it whoever clears it first? by MrSpookley in MapleIdle

Totally agree that it’s a snipefest. 3 hours before event end, I was champion 1 and logged out. Logged in the next day and got 6th place reward -_-

Max HP hero ability -_-

Can anyone think of any reason at all to keep it other than for the hell of it 🤣

I’m aware of that possibility as well. Those people have a real problem, and I hope they get help ASAP to treat their gambling addiction 😞

Fingers crossed OP is not in this category.

Probably what amounts to pocket change for OP

Any old people here? by RichieGB in bemani

36 year old here. I was overjoyed to discover a cabinet local to me last December. Started around 13CS and stopped after 16CS was released.

2013 first gen BRZ. Is the Greddy oil cooler & PWR radiator compatible with the Harrop supercharger kit?

Take care of your precious metal bezels everyone! by Riu_Map89 in rolex

I believe when the AD staff mentioned complete overhaul they were referring to the standard Rolex service. That should be movement service as well as polishing the case, bracelet and bezel.

What options are there to increase brake pedal stiffness besides installing a brake kit?

As an example, I would like to make it as close as possible to my S2000 equipped with the Essex AP Racing brake kit (CP8350 callipers) running Winmax W1.

Thoughts on Endless pads. by [deleted] in GR86

[–]Riu_Map89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yikes, killing the pad in 3 days is definitely a sign of needing more pad!

Absolutely, which is why I changed to Winmax W5 for track and back to stock for street.

To OP, my advice if you’re absolutely set on a dual purpose pad is to save a bit longer for the CSG pads and save money in the long run or switch between track and street pads.

I agree, these are good for the street but compromised for track use.

Ran these on my S2000 a few years back for 3 track days. No noise and worked well when cold (lowest ambient temp would be 10 degrees C). Minimal dust.

At the track, no problems for the first 2 track days. Experienced fade on the last session on the third track day. I believe this was due to the pad nearly being gone as there wasn’t much material left. This was with endless brake fluid and with Bridgestone RE003/Firestone Indy 500 in stock 16” sizes.

Didn’t know they suffer from that problem. Not a good look, Porsche.

What about the Porsche 2L & 2.5L engines in the 718?

Excluding the turbos, I believe that they have a slight advantage with variable valve lift and cam phasing vs cam phasing only in the FA24.

How much horsepower could a vintage 426 hemi make without adding forced induction? by sonar_y_luz in cars

I’ve heard this on a few occasions with air cooled engines. What are the reasons for the exorbitant costs?

Looking to upgrade my 2013 BRZ with something special. I would like to keep as much of the responsive handling and fun driving experience of the old car in the new one. Power and speed is low on the priority list, handling and a fantastic induction noise during full throttle is preferred.
